Scanning Tunneling Microscope
System. Manufacturer: CreaTec,
Germany. Intended Use: See notice at 77
FR 42483, July 19, 2012. Comments:
None received. Decision: Approved. We
know of no instruments of equivalent
scientific value to the foreign
instruments described below, for such
purposes as this is intended to be used,
that was being manufactured in the
United States at the time of its order.
Reasons: The instrument will be used to
investigate properties of materials and
novel phenomena related to nanoscale
science. This instrument is specialized
for creating artificial nanoscale
structures on an atom-by-atom basis
using nascent atom manipulation
techniques. The instrument will be used
to investigate the amount of force
required to move one atom on a
materials surface while simultaneously
measuring local electronic structural
changes during atom movement.
Requirements for this instrument
include: simultaneous measurements of
tunneling current and force signals at an
atomic scale, STM scanner with q-Plus
tuning fork type AFM set-up, single
atom and single molecule manipulation
capabilities, single atom/molecule
tunneling spectroscopy, ultrahigh
vacuum compatibility, bath cryostat
with LHe hold time greater than 72
hours and a LN2 hold time greater than
72 hours, optical access at low
temperature, at least 6 K substrate
temperature should be achieved,

SUMMARY: On August 21, 2012, the U.S.
Trade Representative (‘‘USTR’’)
instructed the Department of Commerce
(‘‘Department’’) to implement its
determinations under section 129 of the
Uruguay Round Agreements Act
(‘‘URAA’’) regarding the antidumping
and countervailing duty investigations
on certain new pneumatic off-the-road
tires (‘‘OTR Tires’’) from the People’s
Republic of China (‘‘PRC’’), circular
welded carbon quality steel pipe
(‘‘CWP’’) from the PRC, laminated
woven sacks (‘‘Sacks’’) from the PRC,
and light-walled rectangular pipe and
tube (‘‘LWRPT’’) from the PRC, which
renders them not inconsistent with the
World Trade Organization (‘‘WTO’’)
dispute settlement findings in United
States—Definitive Anti-Dumping and
Countervailing Duties on Certain
Products from China, WT/DS379/AB/R
(March 11, 2011) (‘‘DS 379’’). The
Department issued its final
determinations in these section 129
proceedings on July 31, 2012.1 The
AGENCY:
1 See Memoranda from Christian Marsh, Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Operations to Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration,
dated July 31, 2012, regarding: (1) Final
Determinations: Section 129 Proceedings Pursuant
to the WTO Appellate Body’s Findings in WTO DS
379 Regarding the Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Investigations of Certain New Pneumatic Offthe-Road Tires from the People’s Republic of China
(‘‘OTR Tires Section 129 Final Determinations’’); (2)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 22, 2011, the Department
informed interested parties that it was
initiating proceedings under section 129
of the URAA to implement the findings
of the WTO dispute settlement panel in
DS 379 with regard to the countervailing
duty (‘‘CVD’’) investigations on OTR
Tires and Sacks from the PRC. On
September 27, 2011, the Department
informed interested parties that it was
initiating proceedings under section 129
of the URAA to implement the findings
of the WTO dispute settlement panel in
DS 379 with regard to the CVD
investigations on CWP and LWRPT from
the PRC. On May 14, 2012, the
Department informed interested parties
that it was initiating proceedings under
section 129 of the URAA to implement
the findings of the WTO dispute
settlement panel in DS 379 with regard
to the antidumping duty (‘‘AD’’)
investigations on CWP, LWRPT, OTR
Tires, and Sacks from the PRC.
Given the number and complexity of
the issues involved, the Department
addressed the Dispute Settlement
Body’s findings through separate
preliminary determination memoranda
with respect to each of the issues
addressed in WTO DS 379. Specifically,
the Department issued the preliminary
determinations regarding:
A. Loan benchmarks on April 6,
2012;2
WTO DS 379 Regarding the Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Investigations of Circular
Welded Carbon Quality Steel Pipe from the People’s
Republic of China (‘‘CWP Section 129 Final
Determinations’’); (3) Final Determinations: Section
129 Proceedings Pursuant to the WTO Appellate
Body’s Findings in WTO DS 379 Regarding the
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Investigations of Laminated Woven Sacks from the
People’s Republic of China (‘‘Sacks Section 129
Final Determinations’’); and (4) Final
Determinations: Section 129 Proceedings Pursuant
to the WTO Appellate Body’s Findings in WTO DS
379 Regarding the Antidumping and Countervailing
Duty Investigations of Light-Walled Rectangular
Pipe and Tube from the People’s Republic of China
(‘‘LWRPT Section 129 Final Determinations’’).
